Becoming an Oni in this land of illusion

Chapter 14

A side effect of getting reattached again?

It seemed to have an independent action to some extent

“I'm looking for just the right kind of teacups. Would you happen to have some of it here?”

The tone's kind of cold, strict, and emotionless?

“Yes, I surely do. What kind of cup would you like?”

“A small, pretty, white one... You see, the kind of white cup that would look nice with dark liquids, and it can't be too heavy. But the real issue is the shape, which should be a little complex... Well, I'll decide about that when I see them. Oh, and I need a pair of them.”

It seemed that the lady is finding Victorian-styled cups

"Err, I see..."

I got up and decided to put this heater back on

I see the girl that wanted the cups it's a girl that has bright red eyes, silver hair worn in long braids on both sides of her face with green bows at the ends, and a white maid's headband. She wears a pink/white and dark blue French maid's outfit with an apron, short sleeves, and a green ribbon. She is also seen carrying three knives and the phrase "Red Magic" appears to be embroidered on her left sleeve.

Well if it isn't the head maid of the Scarlet Devil Mansion Sakuya Izayoi

I'm not close to her because she isn't the type to chatter while I don't bother to talk

Rinnosuke looks at me and I guess he needs some help

"I think we have the perfect cup for your liking"

I remember it's one of Rinnosuke's treasured cups

I've grabbed the box in the draw and opened it only to be met with broken cups and a written note that has Marisa's name on it

Not only does she break Rinnosuke's Favorite cups she also breaks Rinnosuke's Treasured ones

"Why did you freeze Ibaraki-"

It seemed we were both feeling shocked and heavily monologuing

“Which ones?”

"We have not"

Rinnosuke Reached out for the paper

“Hmm, this appears to be Marisa's writing, yes? ‘Sorry’? What does that mean?”

Huh? Since when did Sakuya have the paper?

“Yes, just like you said. I like these. Can I take them?”

Hmm... That's weird why would she want a broken cup?

“Huh? I-is that so? Well, I do like them... but they are not exactly normal.”

Yeah... It's not normal

Well, normal isn't a definition of Gensokyo though

“They are so pretty, and they will look wonderful with black tea. They are exactly what the Mistress wished for."

Can you fix it?

“Hey! Sakuya, are you in there?”

The voice sounded childish like a bratty child in those anime I saw

The door opens revealing Reimu and a little girl

The little girl has red eyes, short light-blue hair, and a light-pink mob cap with a red ribbon decorated with white stripes. She wears a light-pink dress with a red ribbon on both sleeves, a large red ribbon behind her waist with white stripes, and a necklace featuring a Caduceus-like centerpiece. She also has a pair of large black bat-like wings on her back with a wingspan wider than her height.

“My, it seems to be Reimu. When did you return to the shrine? And you brought the Mistress, too...”

it seemed they are talking might as well test the Heater

I go to the cashier section and turn on the device making it blow warm air

I could say I am proud of it

In the corner of my eyes, the little girl that I see seemed to observe me

She is a loli vampire and she is probably stronger than me

My basis is in fiction if it's a loli they are probably a hundred years old that is a master of something absurd

I doubt they are weak in this fantasy place that I'm walking

“Remilia, in the first place, why are you walking about in the middle of the day, even though you're a vampire? Shouldn't you be inside a coffin?“

“I can still have a sunbath viewing. And by the way, coffins are for holding dead people. You seem to have a misunderstanding.”

Aw... I thought Vampires sleep in the coffin

“Anyway, what I'm going to do if rumors of a devil at the shrine start to spread!?”

“You don't have to do anything. Besides, the offertory box was empty.”

“But that may be because it is a godless shrine. Right, Mistress?”

“Don't call it godless!”

Bullying my friend is a crime

"Yeah, it isn't godless"

"Ibaraki..."

"it's called desolate"

Without me

"You aren't helping either!!"

She decided to lunge at me like a cat and needless to say I just stand there while she punches me

It didn't hurt to be blunt

"ouch... What are you made of?"

She has tears in her eyes while clutching her hand

"flesh and bones"

“Oh, right, Sakuya. Did you find the fine teacups?”

“Here, Mistress. Can you see them?”

I see the cute face of the little girl warped into disbelief

Probably Sakuya is a sadistic person
